Four heirs. One curse. No way out — except through her.
The plan was four years, head down, get the degree, get out.
The plan lasted eleven seconds.
Mara Voss arrives at Dreadstone Institute for Supernatural Excellence as the only Null ever admitted — a woman whose ability swallows magic whole. She expects hierarchy. She expects enemies. She does not expect to shatter the school's sixty-three-year-old wards before she finishes unpacking, or to trigger an ancient curse that binds her to four of the most dangerous heirs in the paranormal world.
The Soulmark Curse is older than the school itself. Four heirs born under the Eclipse are fated to one mate. Their marks appear on contact. Their survival depends on her acceptance of all four before the next Eclipse closes the window — forever. Rejection doesn't just break the bond. It kills every one of them. Including her.
Riven Blackwood. The vampire heir hasn't let anyone close since the last fated mate died in his arms. He will wait as long as it takes. He's already waited long enough.
Silas Thorn. The fae heir has been performing charm for so long he forgot his real face. Mara is the first person in two hundred and forty years who has seen through the mask. He doesn't know whether to be furious or grateful.
Bael Ashmore. The demon heir won three blood duels before his own father acknowledged him. Conditional love is the only love he's ever known. He's not sure he trusts the bond — or himself.
Soren Crowe. The necromancer heir sees every timeline. In most of them, she dies. He has chosen to love her anyway. Every morning. Every nightmare. Always yes.
But the headmistress has been watching all of them since before the term began. She knows more about the Soulmark Curse than any of them — because she survived its failure once before. Six hundred years ago. And she has spent every decade since making sure no one else completes what she couldn't.
Mara's burn scars — the ones she's been hiding since she was eight years old — are not damage.
They are the only thing capable of holding all four of them at once.
The curse chose four. She chose back.
